Predicate for determining equivalence between range elements.
An input range of elements to filter.
An input range of consecutively unique elements in the original range. If r is also a forward range or bidirectional range, the returned range will be likewise.
import std.algorithm.comparison : equal; import std.algorithm.mutation : copy; int[] arr = [ 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5 ]; assert(equal(uniq(arr), [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ][])); // Filter duplicates in-place using copy arr.length -= arr.uniq().copy(arr).length; assert(arr == [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]); // Note that uniqueness is only determined consecutively; duplicated // elements separated by an intervening different element will not be // eliminated: assert(equal(uniq([ 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 3, 1]), [1, 2, 1, 3, 1]));
Lazily iterates unique consecutive elements of the given range (functionality akin to the _uniq system utility). Equivalence of elements is assessed by using the predicate pred, by default "a == b". The predicate is passed to std.functional.binaryFun, and can either accept a string, or any callable that can be executed via pred(element, element). If the given range is bidirectional, uniq also yields a bidirectional range.
